Nicolo Polcorte Shot His Mother-in- Law in Hip. olo Polcorto, an Italian 21 years oid, is facing a, charge of assault with intent to kill as a result of a shooting aftair Saturday night at his home in Shaw street, New London., when his mother-in-law, Mrs. Rosie Petrizzi, was hit in thie rizht hip by a bullet discharged from a .32 calibre revolver in_his possession. Polcorto claims not anything that transpired Saturday night. He said: “They tell me I" siot my mother-in-law, but I don’t re- member a thing. He came home crazy drunk and go- ing to a table where he kept his pistol and cartridge belt, armed_himself and walked about the rooms of the house, discharging the gun promiscuously. nally, reaching his bedroom, in which his wife and child were, he continued to_shoot. Mrs. Petrizzi, hearing the shots, hurried to_the part of the house oc- cupied by Polcorto. Reasning his room, she stood on the threshold of the door, about to remonstrate, when she was struck by one of the bullets from the Italian’s revolver. Polcorto left the house shortly after the shooting and was apprehended in Bank street by Sergt. Benjamin Beebe and Patrolman McKenna, who were summoned to the scene by an excited Italian. He was immediately taken to the New London police station and locked up. After everything possible had been done at the home in Shaw street to allay the sufferings of the injured woman, she was removed to the Law- rence hospital, where it has been said that she will recover and may be able to leave the hospital in a week, if nothing unforeseen develops. Polcorto was arraigned before Judge Coit Monday morning, when the charge of assault with intent to kill was pre- ferred against him. Because of the neceseary absence of Mrs. Petrizzi, the case was continued until Dec. 11 to allow time for her recovery. ¥ CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO ELECT OFFICERS to remember Annual Meeting Comes This Year on Eleventh cf the Month.
